We're Off to a Busy Start!

Our Reach volunteers have been super busy! Here are some of the things they've been up to:

Wednesday, September 18th- Ana Porras gave a presentation at LaFollette high school about Colombian geography and culture.

Thursday 9/19- Sunday 9/21 several of our volunteers helped out at Madison's 10th Annual World Music Festival by introducing some of the bands. Shout out to Cecilia Wester, Jeanne Essame, Meareg Amare, Lily Khadempour, Maria Sonia Ares Gomez, and Blanca Llodra for doing an awesome job!

We also have a ton of exciting upcoming events!
On October 8th from 5:30-7:00pm we're having a training social! Come join us for free food, fun, and a great, interactive presentation on intercultural dialogue.

WUD Global Connections is doing an educational event on October 16th. The event will be a discussion on Egypt/ Syria and will feature a panel of American and international students to give their opinions, experiences, and thoughts of the issue.

They are doing a similar event November 14th but with a focus on Israel/ Palestine

November 14th is also World Languages Day! Several of our volunteers are participating by doing an engaging presentation in front of 50 high schools students.

We're also looking to bring back Storytime! We ask for volunteers to read a story from their own childhood to Madison's kids. If you're interested email reach@studentlife.wisc.edu for more details!

See you all soon!
